The long, thin shape of the country (even with the islands adding some width to the map) translates better to a CC map better in the slanted position. Put a compass on there and job's a good one. Also, the current version is true to how the map already is. You could change it all, but I'm sure some people would just throw a fit.

Suddenly the issue once again, becomes unresolved

because portugal is a tiny little country compared to canada and the earth curvature would be almost undetectable at that scale.
I think that maps of real places should be correctly or closely oriented to their actual orientation. Part of the fun on CC is learning about places I've never been and to find out that Portugal is not at a large angle has upset me. While the original and revamp look good it would be completely impossible to get a map of the USA or ENGLAND through the foundry at a 45* angle unless that was part of the gameplay twist.

-Add a neutral to one of the Algarve terrs (is this 100% a good idea?).
-Perhaps add a compass to aid in orientation.
